About Luna Beach Properties

We are very family oriented with 7 wonderful children, 2 beautiful daughter-in-laws and 5 precious granddaughters. We like to travel around the world, but we always love to come home to the white sand beaches of Alabama.

Why Luna Beach Properties chose Alabama

We chose this property because of its central location and the fact that it is a top floor, corner unit in a quiet low density complex. Not to mention the gorgeous Alabama beaches!

What makes this condo unique

It's on the beach side, a short walk to shopping centers and restaurants. Great pool area and family oriented.

Guestbook comments from the manager

Words cannot express how much we enjoyed our stay at your condo, Ocean House. It was beautifully decorated and oh so peaceful. The beach front was pristing, very well managed and much less crowded compared to other places we have stayed. We look forward to our next trip to the Gulf and hope to be able to stay there again. Thank you!

Lacking a lot!

This place has a couple of pics that are not accurate. The master bathroom needs serious remodeling. The floor is cracking. The shower/bathtub has a door on it (not pictured in photo of this bathroom in ad) and right inside that door (which doesn't open very well btw) is black stains all around the tub, water puddles all around the sides. All showers/baths had basic, old, crappy showerheads/spouts. The one in the master kept slipping down and the water changed from nice and warm to hot shots and cold shots sporadically for no apparent reason. At night in the master bedroom you can hear the elevator going up and down all night. There is no dresser type furniture in the middle room besides one small end table, so I couldn't even unpack my kids things in there at all except by putting it all over the floor. There were NO hair dryers in any rooms (some ppl expect this, I don't personally use them at the beach, but just as an FYI for those that do). No coat hangers in the closets (only 5 or so in the third bedroom. The table on the patio was old and mix matched chairs, one of which was plastic. The floor out there was black as if never ever washed off. My son and I walked out barefoot and our feet were so blackened it took 20 mins in the shower scrubbing with soap to try and get it off! Front balcony only had one chair and some end table, both cheap plastic ones from Walmart. We were awakened by load trash pick up every morn at 7:15am. This is a THREE bedroom condo and there is only ONE couch and two small chairs. We could never sit all together in the living room due to lack of seating. Not what I would expect for paying as much as we did for this place.

Ocean House in general: Only one elevator made "check out day" a nightmare! We literally had to wait a whole hour trying to get our cart on because it was packed full every time it opened and being on the top we never had a chance. The bathrooms by the pool were always nasty, I'm not convinced they were cleaned the entire week we were there. There were even times there was no tissue in them. Did not look like it was looked after by the building staff.

Bottom line, I would not recommend this particular unit. And honestly not a huge fan of the entire experience at Ocean House in general. Do yourself a favor and keep looking!

Property building itself and Luna Beach were fantastic! Unfortunately the unit was lacking. No blinds over any sliding doors, only curtains that were litterly falling off the walls. We had to change the master bedroom sheets immediately due to old blood stained on the sheets...gross! Middle guest room had no cable, and master bedroom on lagoon side was advertised with a really nice patio set, which had been replaced by a plastic stool...this would have been a great place to watch the sun set. All the common areas located in the building and pool area were extremely clean and enjoyable. Overall, I would not rent this particular unit again.

Will definitely use Luma Beach Rentals again! Very nice staff and got back to me if I had a question very quickly. My only complaint is that the beds weren't the most comfortable. Otherwise, all was great!

We have stayed at Ocean House previously and love the location. This condo was nicely decorated and furnished and very comfortable. A little lacking on pots and pans and I did purchase a pot holder which is definitely minor. The property is very well maintained, the security personnel are very helpful and we plan to continue booking our beach vacations at either of the Ocean House buildings.

Process of renting the condo, getting the keys etc. very easy and Luna Beach Properties made it seamless. The actual condo was well maintained and clean. The cleaning smell in the main lobby was horrible. The elevators were sometimes slow. The pool seemed to have a layer of sunscreen over it with the amount of use it got. Would have liked to see a few umbrella chairs at the pool for some shade. The location was great, right on the beach, great views, nice staff, felt very secure.

Map

Walking distance to the Hangout restaurant bar with live entertainment available. A classic, Souvenir City for taking a memory of the beach home with you, look for the giant shark entrance. Pier 33, a convenience store with food, beverages, and all your beach needs. Driving distance to Wal-Mart, Winn Dixie grocery, Target, and Publix, just to name of few. Wonderful restaurants including Jimmy Buffet's own sister's LULU's restaurant. Play volleyball or enjoy a cool cocktail while you wait for your table. My personal favorite, the Shrimp Basket, offering fine Gulf Coast seafood for reasonable family prices, Tacky Jack's on the Marina also a wonderful place just to name of few. Got teenagers? Waterville USA water park, The Track with go-cart racing, bungee diving and rides, Putt-Putt Golf, The Zoo, parasailing, jet skiing, horseback riding, the list goes on and on. Golf also available with reasonable fees.
